Grand Solar Minimum
- Uncertainty, Part 2

The
interglacial climate is diminishing,
the cycle intervals are getting shorter,
the face of the Sun 'darkens',
and the solar wind is fast fading.

We have observed Grand Solar
Minimum events, and large Global Warming events for more than three thousand years,
and we saw their amplitude and intervals shrinking, while interglacial climate
and solar activity was diminishing at an an ever-faster rate. Now, since the year-2000, even the solar
wind began to diminish, at a rate of 30% in 10 years. Even the 11-year solar
cycles have slowed down to 13 years. The climate scene has become a scene of a
wide-open uncertainty.

Ironically,
the next anticipated Grand Solar Minimum event of the 2030/40 timeframe, has a
different cause than the historic minimum events, which renders the event
unrecoverable, whereby it unfolds into the start of the next Ice Age that
renders the Earth largely uninhabitable for 90,000 years into the future. We
need to develop a new humanist paradigm with the science involved that would
inspire us to built ourselves out of the climate crisis, by building us a New
World that the Ice Age Climate cannot touch. Only then, when we are in control,
will the uncertainty end.
